Very nice! But are you going to make it into a roadbike with those tyres? (you ride in Holland don't you? Where I ride (Drunense Duinen) I need much more profile than that)

Jeroen.

I ride near Eindhoven , mostly forrest that is hard packed .
Maybe i switch to more profile (got these still laying around from the beach classic in Scheveningen).
But first i wil give these a try when the bike is done ( in a month or so )

HELP Needed badly

Been looking everywhere for the past 2 weeks voor a front derraileur that fits .

Wich model/make fits ?

Ha? Why not?

A normal down swing, down pull with the right clamp diameter and everything works well. Top swings won't work of course.
At my 252 I installed a Shimano CX 600 (retro) and on my 853 I installed a precision front der (ejaculating retro).
Every good shop should have such a der.

Otherwise there a many of those down swing down pulls in ebay. Just cost you a few bucks.
